I have been using the MAX-80 from Hardware House for about two months now
and simply love it. It is fast (wow) and reliable. With the MAX-80, I have
160 MB of internal storage in my Mac II. The other drive which is an apple
80SC holds A/UX. Frankley, I like the Max-80 much better than the apple drive!
--------
I am not an employee of nor have any other relations with Hardware House
except as a satisfied customer.
